Home Description

Description of the home

Our house is in the heart of Brunswick West. It is a two-story house with two living areas and a nice big yard for gardening. We live close to the 58 tram, Dunstan Reserve, the Moreland Road shops and about a 20-minute walk from Sydney Road. We have extra services that come into the house including supports for Jonathan and Julian during the day, a weekly cleaner for the communal areas, and gardener.

If you are interested in joining our household, please contact myself, Gabi (who is assisting us in our housemate search).

About occupants
About us

Jonathan: I’m a homebody, I love to have a laugh but also really enjoy my downtime. I’m passionate about reading, comics, star-gazing movies, gardening and enjoy the odd slasher flick! On Friday’s I collect books from a local op shop and deliver them to street libraries in the Brunswick/Coburg area, I also have a street library of my own out the front of the house.

Julian: I enjoy being out and about in the community and also love spending time with my housemates at home watching movies. I’m into reading, animals, sci-fi and fantasy films, and pop culture. I enjoy slap stick humour and kicking the ball with my housemates at the local park. I work for a book service program to deliver library books to people at a retirement home.

Ruben: I love getting out of the house for trips up home, I am originally from regional NSW and have been living in Melbourne for the last few years. I work as a relief primary school teacher so am often out of the house but I love sharing a meal and watching a movie with my housemates. I am a fierce advocate for Jonathan and Julian.
